    What are you going to use it for? IMO not much good for anyting other
    than learning.

    Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
    are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
    time do it along the way.

    get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

    IMO should have gone for a flat crown, so many more options, and maybee
    a 24, 20 is kind of slow.

    And why can't you do that on your 24" unicycle or 20" trials unicycle?

    Nothing at all - most of us forum regulars have them 🙂

    Also, the skills and experience of building up another unicycle,
    bending the frame, etc will be useful for future purposes too.

    Dave: Just a question. What use is a unicyle with no seat? And no
    pedals!

    IMO you should have saved your money and bought something different. You
    will be able to do everything and more on your other uni compared to
    that. If you want something to just ride around on why get a 20"? If
    you want to practice wwing why get a uni with a rounded crown frame
    and without a nice tyre for wwing?

    I support any person's right to have a unicycle collection. I've got
    one myself. And to know for themselves what the best next unicycle is.
    It's lovely.

    Plus, having a spare uni to lend is good when you're trying to get your
    friends to learn so you can have more riding buddies!

    I like the yellow. When I started, all you could get was Chrome. Have
    lots of fun on it. It will help catch people's eyes and people will
    enjoy watching you on the cool machine.

    Good Choice, Isaac!
